If you play the part of a nasty bridezilla the first time around, you should be more than ready for anyone that attended that mess of a performance to reject your request to do the whole thing over again. Seems like this particular family member was totally in the right for not wanting to attend the dramatics yet again. Folks in the comments section would all seem to be in agreement as well. 

For some more juicy bridezilla drama check out this story about the time a bridezilla Karen ended up looking like a pauper at her own wedding.

    Text - AITA for telling my sister I won't be in her second/makeup wedding? My (25f) sister (30f) got married six years ago. The wedding did not go quite as planned so she and her husband have decided they want a redo and are planning to have their wedding late next year. I was her bridesmaid/kinda maid of honor with one of her friends, and she treated me like shit. I was younger then and didn't really say much because the rest of my family would have told me to deal with it for her day, and be t

    Text - I was SO stressed out because of her and then at her wedding one of our cousins had a medical emergency followed by our brothers girlfriend going into labor. I bore the brunt of her anger that day and afterward she got pissy with our brothers girlfriend for taking the spotlight from her and now they don't talk and she doesn't know our nephew.

    Text - So when she asked me again I told her no. She wanted a reason. I told her to reflect on how she treated me at her last wedding and left it there. Now our parents, paternal grandma and paternal aunts and great aunts are all rallying to get me to say yes, and to apologize for saying no. ΑΙΤΑ? 12.1k 833 Share

    Text - Mysterious-Winter616 • 10h She's still holding a grudge because your nephew was born on wedding day? Damn. So l'm guessing she hasn't done any maturing during the last 6 years. I would not want a repeat of that experience. Basically you've got a year before the wedding. By when do you have to let them know if you're changing your mind? Book a vacation that you just forgot to tell them about it. Lol. NTA Reply 1.7k ...

    Text - weeble_ • 11h • Asshole Enthusiast [5] NTA. You are a person with free will. If you feel you were treated badly and don't want to be put in a position where it could happen again, well you have every right to do as you please and shouldn't feel any guilt for that choice. And is buying your own dress a thing? At my marriage we bought all the clothes, bridesmaids, best man, page boy...all out of our funds Reply 1 1.9k ...

    Text - kma1391 • 8h NTA. Don't put yourself through that again. And you don't have anything to bloody apologize for. Did your family not see this behaviour from her? Or is she the "golden child" that can do no wrong? Reply 149 ...

    Text - Sentahlta • 10h NTA it's not on you to make her day perfect, and since it's already a do-over sheʼll be even worse if this one doesn't go exactly to her every plan. It's very indulgent to have a second wedding when already married, especially next year when everywhere will be packed with weddings that got cancelled during corona. Everything will be hard work from shopping to venues to food. You already did it once and you shouldn't have to take on the emotional labour of a second round fo

    Text - Ok-Beginning-5922 • 10h • Asshole Enthusiast [6] 1 Award NTA. She's holding a grudge against a woman and her child, because she went into labour. That says everything we need to know about her. Hope people respond in situations like that, tells you a lot about who they are. She doesn't recognise her poor behaviour, and never apologise for how she treated you, which means she feels entitled to treat you that way. Stick with no, ignore any messages regarding this, and end conversations with

    Text - BrownandBlonde • 9h • Partassipant [3] NTA Im surprised her marriage has lasted six years. Was her husband blinking S.O.S the last time you saw him? But seriously, tell her and your family the reason, don't be vague. Reply 159

    Text - Cranberryblue112 • 10h NTA No. Hell no. No with a cherry on top. You don't deserve to be treated like shit, especially by a Bridezilla that is demanding a second wedding for her own selfish reasons. I would distance myself from that whole train wreck if I were you. Your sister is only going to get worse before she gets better. She clearly has issues. Reply 40 ...

    Text - WembleyToast • 11h • Asshole Aficionado [19] NTA but I would say that it's better to state the reasons why you felt uncomfortable last time rather than hoping she'll figure it out on her own. She probably won't self- reflect in the way you hope, she could lash out and say that you're being vague or petty, and that's not what you want. Good luck. Reply 140

    Text - not-into-usernames • 10h • Partassipant [3] NTA. My whole family treated me like trash during then year before my sister's wedding and every time I had a panic attack they comforted me by telling me she'd do the same for my wedding. What should actually have happened is not being treated like shit in the first place. You should be able to choose how you'd like to be treated as an adult, so it's only fair for you to stand up for yourself. Don't give in! Reply 1 64 ...

    Text - galaxy-parrot •9h • Partassipant [2] NTA It takes a special kind of person to not be happy with all of the attention they got on their first wedding day. Because that's all this second wedding is, "I didn't get enough attention the first time round". She sounds like a nightmare to be perfectly honest. I wouldn't bother either. Six years has no real significance. Renewing vows at 10, 15 or 20 years? Sure. But six years? Give me a break Reply 65 ...

It is not your fault the first one is shitty and you ate totally in the right for not wanting to have a second go around. Why would they think you would want to deal with her being a bridezilla again. Reply ↑ 17 ...

    Text - dart1126 • 7h • Partassipant [1] NTA, especially because it seems like 6 years later she only wants a do-over because of the examples you gave like sister in law having the gall to go into labor and 'ruining her spotlight'. Anyone that self centered is bound to be even worse the second time around. Here's hoping there's a proposal or pregnancy announcement during this one...you don't happened to have a boyfriend do you? Tee-hee. Reply 1 17 ...

Hell, the fact that she doesn't know her own nephew because your bro's girlfriend went into labor - how self centred is she?? l'd be staying as far as possible from her do-over fake second wedding.

Your sister is mad because someone went into labour... I'm sorry but that's not a controllable thing. Your body doesn't care where you are, it's now focused of getting the baby out. Also, I would love to have a wedding do-over. We never got even a quarter of what we wanted. I won't get into it but having a weddin

    Text - JakeT-life-is-great • 7h NTA - and if anyone tries to convince you to do it calmly explain that it was a terrible experience, you were repeatedly treated like shit. Then to stop them from asking again go on the offenisve. Ask the person why they think so little of you that they want you to go through it again. Ask them why they don't like you. Ask them why they favor your sister. Put them on the spot with uncomfortable questions and they will stop asking. Reply
